Dermatophagoides pteronissinus (DP) is one of the house dust mites (HDM) associated with allergic diseases. The cysteine protease Der p 1 from DP is a powerful allergen. The pathogenic mechanism of allergy is involved in cytokine secretion of lymphocytes and spontaneous apoptosis of neutrophils. In this study, we investigated whether Der p 1 induces cytokine secretion of lymphocytes and if the release of cytokines is associated with regulation of neutrophil apoptosis. In normal and allergic subjects, Der p 1 increased IL-6, IL-8, MCP-1, and GM-CSF release in a time-dependent course. Supernatants collected from normal and allergic neutrophils after Der p 1 stimulation suppressed the apoptosis of normal and allergic neutrophils, although Der p 1 alone has no effect on neutrophils. Der p 1 suppressed neutrophil apoptosis in coculture of normal neutrophils with normal lymphocytes. Der p 1 more strongly suppressed apoptosis of allergic neutrophils cocultured with allergic lymphocytes than normal neutrophils cocultured with normal lymphocytes. In summary, Der p 1 increases the secretion of cytokines, which has anti-apoptotic effects on neutrophils of normal and allergic subjects. These results will contribute to elucidate the pathogenic mechanism of allergic diseases.
